- Gut Microbiome and Healthy Aging: the case of the Centenarians at the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica Gut Microbiome and Healthy Aging: the case of the Centenarians at the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica (Adrian Pinto-Thomas, University of C osta Rica, San José, C osta Rica)
- Raising Awareness of Sarcopenia (Roger Fielding, Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, Tufts University School Of Medicine, Boston)
Background
Healthy Ageing: Exploring Biomarkers, Hallmarks, and Nutritional Strategies-This talk will present insights from a multistakeholder workshop, discussing keybiomarkers and hallmarks of aging, as well as nutritional interventions that can promote healthy aging.
Gut Microbiome and Healthy Aging: the Case of the Centenarians at Nicoya Peninsula-Drawing from the unique population of centenarians in Costa Rica, this talk will explore the relationship between gut microbiota and longevity, presenting research on how the microbiome contributes to healthy aging.
Raising Awareness of Sarcopenia-This final talk will address the growing prevalence of sarcopenia in older adults, underscoring the importance of early detection, prevention strategies, and nutritional interventions to maintain muscle mass and function.

Session information
Session title: Nutrition and Lifestyle Interventions for Healthy AgingTime and location: TBD
Session chairs: Roger Fielding, Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, and Hannia Leon, ILSI Mesoamerica.
Objective
This session aims to explore the scientific findings and practical implications surrounding healthy aging, focusing on biomarkers, nutritional strategies, and the gut microbiome. The session will highlight how different approaches-both biological and societal-can enhance the health span of aging populations. It also seeks to raise awareness about sarcopenia, a common age-related condition, and provide insights into strategies for prevention
